The Marshall Center is coming together with many others to officially commemorate Juneteenth (Freedom Day, Liberation Day, Jubilee Day) - June 19th, 2022. Juneteenth is now officially a federal holiday.

We want to recognize the impact this day has on the African-American community as it reminds us of the history of injustice for our Black community members. We encourage you to learn more.

Municipal Council Judith Garcia was selected by the Office of Vice President Kamala Harris to be among ten other Honduran-US national leaders to share ideas and priorities in preparation for the visit of the Vice President in Honduras. Congratulations Judith! This is a testament to your work with the community!

🗣 La Concejala Municipal Judith García fue seleccionada por la Oficina de la Vicepresidenta Kamala Harris para estar entre otros diez líderes nacionales hondureño-estadounidenses para compartir ideas y prioridades en preparación para la visita de la Vicepresidenta a Honduras.

🗣 La vicepresidenta Kamala Harris ha estado liderando los esfuerzos diplomáticos de la Administración para abordar las causas fundamentales de la migración de El Salvador, Guatemala y Honduras.

🗣 Ha trabajado con socios bilaterales, multilaterales y del sector privado, así como con líderes de la sociedad civil para ayudar a abordar los desafíos regionales.

🗣 Esta semana, la Vicepresidenta Harris viajó para asistir a la toma de posesión de la Presidenta electa Xiomara Castro. La visita de la Vicepresidenta promoverá el compromiso que ella y la presidente electo Castro hicieron para profundizar la asociación entre los Estados Unidos y Honduras.

🗣 Antes del viaje de la Vicepresidenta, su equipo de seguridad nacional se acercó a los líderes hondureño-estadounidenses de todo el país para escuchar ideas e inquietudes a medida que la Administración continúa construyendo su asociación con Honduras en un evento de prensa cerrado.



👩 “Me siento honrada de ser parte de esta importante conversación bilateral al unir fuerzas con la administración del vicepresidente Harris y otros líderes hondureños de los Estados Unidos. Como concejal en uno de los estados que alberga a miles de hondureños es importante atender las necesidades de los hondureños que residen aquí”, dijo el Concejal García.
